    That’s very deontological. Suppose you train a model that is equally good as other models, but only using your own work. (If you were a billionaire, you could commission many works to achieve this, perhaps.) Either way, you end up with an AI that allows you to produce content without hiring artists. If the end result is just as bad for artists, why is using one of those ethical?

      True, but that’s why I specified that it could only be used for my own personal use. Once you start publishing the output you’ve entered unethical territory.

        I don’t see the relevance of its personal use here. If it is ethical to use your own AI for personal use, why is it unethical to use an AI trained on stolen data for personal use?
